yeah I know that i should start with a 12ft or longer and allthat but im going with the 10ft for now are the solid sides way more heavyer because im not planning on getting a big truck and i mite have to start with my 2006 jeep commander V6 untill i buy a truck
thank you

What are the solid sides made of, wood or steel? I can't tell from the pictures. I would go with the bigger one and just put the sides in myself of plywood. I'm fighting for every inch of space on my trailer. I might change my mind if you said you were going to be hauling a ton of bulk mulch, the solid's sides look higher. Chances are though if you are just starting out, you will have small mulch jobs and bags are really convenient and you wouldn't need the sides so much. I also don't like how far forward the jack on the solid trailer is. You have to be real careful with a tail gate and the jack handle on one like that.
